If true, this means Tesla has more skilled engineers in the San Francisco Bay Area to choose from in the future:

"I certainly hope Apple gets into the car business," Musk said following Tesla's earnings report. "That would be great. But we're not seeing any significant attrition of engineers to Apple, for anything. Cars or otherwise. Anyone can find this out by going on LinkedIn. If you look at the trailing 12 months, Tesla has recruited something like five times as many people from Apple as Apple has from Tesla."
